The implementation of the eco-industrial parks concept is driven by the need to reduce the negative environmental impact of industry while promoting sustainable development through the integration of economic and environmental approaches. Modern challenges such as climate change, depletion of natural resources, and growing population demands necessitate the search for new approaches to industrial production. Eco-industrial parks offer comprehensive solutions by combining the principles of circular economy, innovative technologies, and sustainable resource management. These parks can not only reduce pollution but also enhance the efficiency of material and energy use. The aim of the study is to examine the subjects of eco-industrial park policies and analyse their role in implementing effective sustainable development strategies. The research focuses on identifying key change agents, such as government institutions on central and local levels, which directly influence policy formulation and implementation in this field. The methodology is based on a inductive analysis of literature, and the application of concept mapping to identify the relationships between policy actors and their influence on outcomes. The scientific results obtained demonstrate that for the effective functioning of eco-industrial parks in Ukraine, active cooperation between the main policy actors is essential. The state's role as a regulator is crucial, as it creates favourable conditions for the development of innovative ecological projects. Future research prospects include studying the impact of emerging technologies, particularly digitalization and automation of production processes, on the efficiency of eco-industrial parks. Additionally, developing tools for monitoring and evaluating the long-term environmental and economic effectiveness of these parks will be an important research direction.
